Sinopsis del Libro

Libro Zilia Sánchez

A beautifully produced, comprehensive look at Cuban artist Zilia Sánchez that traces her alluring and evocative paintings and sculpture from the 1950s to today Cuban artist Zilia Sánchez (b. 1926) often says, “Soy isla” (“I am an island”), expressing her desire for solitary, uncompromising practice. It also serves as a metaphor for her experience as an islander—connected to and disconnected from both the mainland and mainstream art currents, such as concretism, gestural abstraction, and minimalism. Characterized by reductive forms, clean lines, and sensuous curves suggestive of the female body, Sánchez’s work frequently references protagonists from ancient mythology and lunar motifs while embracing ambiguity. This groundbreaking volume examines her paintings, sculptures, works on paper, and graphic illustrations together with archival ephemera. It traces Sánchez’s artistic journey from her early years in Cuba through her travels in Europe and residence in New York in the 1960s to her move to Puerto Rico, where she still lives and works. With spectacular illustrations of more than 75 artworks, insightful essays situating Sánchez within the context of global modernism, and a conversation with the artist, this is the most comprehensive publication on Sánchez’s art to date.

Libro Ciberadaptados

Estamos ante un riguroso ensayo; y un ensayo literario que nos regala —como dijo el filósofo— la "poetización del saber". Su prosa tiene la fuerza del columnista recio sin perder la inspiración del poeta, argumenta con osadía pero no pierde de vista nunca la vida como referente necesario, algo que no todo el pensamiento contemporáneo tiene en cuenta cuando se dejar arrastrar por la mera especulación intelectual.

Sin figuración, poca diversión

Libro Sin figuración, poca diversión

Este libro propone un delicioso recorrido sobre numerosos temas relacionados con el arte: paisajes, edificios arquitectónicos, esculturas, pinturas, fotografías y diseños. Y aunque en estas páginas no se pretende demostrar nada, sí se ponen en cuestión recalcitrantes lugares comunes sobre el interminable debate entre (la mal llamada) abstracción y la figuración. Todas las obras de las que aquí se habla, sin complejos ni cortapisas, son obras muy amadas, y todas ellas son figurativas o son objetos útiles (o ambas cosas a la vez), pues, como señala Oscar Tusquets: «En el arte no...
